Grooming
It can be difficult and even spendy to try out new grooming products. Not only that, but certain grooming products (for example, razors) can be annoying to purchase over and over again. With subscription boxes, you don’t need to worry about either of these problems.
For one, you could subscribe to a service such as Birchbox for men to get monthly samples. They allow you to test out new products for a reasonable fee and find your new favorite items. This way, you won’t have to purchase full-size products you’ve never tried and waste money if you don’t like them. There’s also Dollar Shave Club – another budget-friendly subscription that provides monthly shipments of razors so you’ll never accidentally run out!
Clothing + Accessories
There are a few different types of men’s clothing subscription boxes on the market. For one, there are personal styling services that ship you clothing items right to your doorstep. Then, you try all of them, keep what you want to purchase and send back what you don’t want. This is a convenient way to shop from the comfort of your home. There are a variety of styling services like this for men, but our favorite is Stitch Fix. We listed this subscription in our women’s subscription boxes article because they have options for women as well!
Another option is a subscription box that sends clothing that you get to keep every month. This might sound like it’d be spendy and risky because you might not like the clothes, but a box like Menlo is fairly inexpensive, and you get great value from it. There are also monthly accessories boxes (such as Gentleman’s Box) to always keep your outfits looking fresh!
Fragrances
Fragrance subscription boxes are a hit or miss for some people. With a box like this, you’ll get a 30-day sample of cologne of your choice. There is quite a bit of controversy with fragrance subscription boxes because you can get samples for free in department stores. However, nobody wants to deal with the inconvenience of going to the store and dealing with salespeople, so it might be worth it to order a fragrance box to try them out instead. One of our favorites is Scentbox!
Lifestyle + Hobbies
Many of the boxes on our list of best subscription boxes for men can be placed into this category. For example, there are boxes for people who love golfing and fishing. Since there are so many different hobbies and lifestyle choices, there are hundreds of subscription boxes that can fit into this category. The good news is – no matter what your favorite hobby is (unless it’s something very strange) there will be a subscription box to fit it.
Fitness
If you love getting in shape, a fitness subscription box can help you progress further towards your dream results. For example, Gainzbox is one of the best monthly subscription boxes for men since it provides healthy supplements, nutrition bars, and other products to help subscribers who want to gain muscle. There will be a box option for you no matter what type of workout you prefer (cardio, weightlifting, yoga, or even boxes dedicated to protein/nutrition bars).
Underwear
Underwear and socks are some of the most annoying items to buy. How convenient would it be if you didn’t need to worry about shopping for them? Instead, you would get them automatically sent to your doorstep every month. With a subscription like MeUndies or Say it with a Sock, this can happen. Most of these boxes allow you to customize which prints and underwear style you’d like to receive, so you should never get anything you don’t like.
Miscellaneous
There are some subscription boxes, such as Bespoke Post, that don’t necessarily fit into one category because they offer a large variety of items. Boxes like these are a great option for guys who have a range of interests and want different box types each month.
Men vs. Women
While many of the best subscription boxes are pretty versatile and can be subscribed to by both men or women, those designed particularly (or mostly) for men are bound to be a better fit for guys. There are certain boxes, such as clothing and accessories for men, that wouldn’t be a good fit for women. However, many hobby boxes can be subscribed to by women who are interested in them (like fishing, sports, fitness, and so on).
